Location: Wayne, PA
Builder: B&D Builders
The owners of this Wayne, PA, estate wanted to create the perfect equine space, blending traditional aesthetics with the modern amenities they (and their horses) deserve. For the horses, the stable space and custom stalls that serve as their home are outfitted with rich, warm wood tones and exquisite metalwork that is both beautiful and durable. Exterior Dutch windows were added that allow the horses to access fresh air and mental stimulation, which is especially important on days when they are stabled for a long period of time.
Custom double doors complement the horse barn’s traditional design and create an inviting grand entrance for all who enter. A fully stocked tack room boasts plenty of organization, as well as a sink and laundry area, for the owners to keep things clean and tidy. Black counters, storage spaces, and fixtures provide a dramatic contrast to the surrounding stone and wood walls.
The heart of the barn features sky-high ceilings and a loft used to store hay, cleaning products, and other supplies. Windows lining the loft’s catwalk deliver uninterrupted views overlooking the property and allow natural light to pour in. The result is a light, airy space with welcoming timber tones and custom details that offer the utmost comfort to the owners and horses alike.
B&D Builders is a full-service custom builder with the experience and expertise to bring your residential or commercial construction project to life. Since 2000, our team of skilled designers and craftsmen have brought creativity and attention to detail to hundreds of buildings, from bank barns, horse barns, and equestrian arenas to party barns, event venues, and luxury homes.
When we — Ben Esh and Daniel Glick — started our business, we were inspired by our experiences growing up. Our families have worked with animals and the buildings they call home for generations. We were raised with that knowledge, as well as a strong work ethic, and it’s part of everything we do. Although we started by building barns, over the years we’ve applied that expertise to other structures. We enjoy working with architects on anything from luxury estates to banks and restaurants.
We take great pride in our work. We’re not happy until you’re happy, and we’ll do what it takes to get things done. It’s not just a slogan. At B&D Builders, your project is built right or not at all.
